Supreme Court Orders Investigation Into "Questionable" Bail Bonds
(Panama-Guide) - Source: La Prensa - The President of Panama's Supreme Court, Anibal Salas, has ordered an investigation into the processes that allowed for the granting of bail bonds to secure the release of former Education Ministers Belgis Castro and Salvador Rodriguez, and former Municipal Engineer Jaime Salas. The move came after a meeting between Judge Salas and Panama's Attorney General, Giuseppe Bonissi, who advised the court that he disagreed with the way the judges responsible for the cases accepted the bail to secure the release of the politicians, who are all members of the Democratic Revolutionary Party (PRD).
